Committed to affordable health care for all West Virginians... and doing something about it!

Our Guiding Principles

  • Health care should be a right of citizenship or residency rather than a privilege of employment.
  • Our health care system should use limited resources wisely.
  • Health care cost containment is essential.
  • Communities, providers, and individuals all have important responsibilities to promote and protect health.
  • Quality health care depends on the conscientious, explicit and judicious use of current best evidence in making decisions about the care of individual patients.
